Probability, Random Variables and Stochastic Processes with Errata Sheet

by Athanasios Papoulis, S. Unnikrishna Pillai, S. Unnikrishna

The fourth edition of Probability, Random Variables and Stochastic Processes has been updated significantly from the previous edition, and it now includes co-author S. Unnikrishna Pillai of Polytechnic University. The book is intended for a senior/graduate level course in probability and is aimed at students in electrical engineering, math, and physics departments. The authors' approach is to develop the subject of probability theory and stochastic processes as a deductive discipline and to illustrate the theory with basic applications of engineering interest. Approximately 1/3 of the text is new material--this material maintains the style and spirit of previous editions. In order to bridge the gap between concepts and applications, a number of additional examples have been added for further clarity, as well as several new topics.

[Parv Bhutiani]

Well if you like numbers this one is 'a must read'.

[Arash Behgoo]

RIP Prof. Papoulis.
Some of the end of chapter problems can make the readers feel dumb and will certainly teach them a lot. The book hardly has any unnecessary words. Very efficiently/concisely written.

[Ur'S Nag]

this book is nice for reading

[blue bird]

I hate `The following formula proves after chapter x`

[Zhenlan Hu]

This is a good probability book for engineers to both refresh basics and learn advanced materials.

[Tarah]

Esoteric for any but the math major (or PhD).

[Isaac Kokkinidis]

Essential reading for engineers dealing with probability.

[Nandini]

It is good for engineering student.i would recommend it for my class

[Alankriti]

this is good to understand but with help of a guide
